About Us

Crumb Rubber operates one of the highest quality rubber recycling operations in the world. Thanks to investment from The Una Group, our state-of-the-art factory opened for business in the summer of 2007. Verneos, a polymer compounding company, was launched on the same site 3 years later.

At Crumb Rubber our primary objective is to produce significant volumes of controlled high quality rubber crumb and powder. We believe that our plant in Plymouth offers the finest quality rubber powder in Europe. In a large number of tyre recycling plants the fine rubber powder is simply a by-product of the shredding process and is therefore of variable quality.

Crumb Rubber's mission is to help increase profit margins at rubber and plastic manufacturing companies. We do this by substituting our high quality recycled rubber powder for a percentage of the virgin material content. Not only does this help boost profitability but in many cases our products also help to improve the mechanical performance and aesthetic qualities of the product. Customers can also support their sustainability objectives by using our products as they are derived from end of life vehicle tyres.

The Una Group's business areas are environmental, commercial property and business support services
